REID g. CRAWLING.

The Oldest industrial enterprise in Mariet-
Ia is he carriage, buggy and wagon mana
factory Of Reid & Granting In l848 H.
Reid started these works and has been turn
ing out all home made vehicles every since
until the fame of his excellent work has
spread in oil the adjacent counties and over
the State. With the addition OF NJ. W. E,
Granting to the partnership, fine machin-
st steam power has been used and car
riages, wagons, buggies, phatons and wheel
barrows are turned out in great quantities
20 accommodate their increasing and grow
ing trade The best material and the most
suitable timber is only used and the strength
and durability OF their vehicles have given
such satisfaction that the people know when
they buy one Of their make, they will have
no repairs to pay for in several years The
painting, vanishing, upholstering and
finish Of their buggies and phctons are not
to be excelled and meets with universal
commentator and praise. Their prices
are cheaper than :, o,ths.n york when it is
taken into consideration that nothing shod
dy enters into their material and their per
sonal supervision Of every piece of work and
finish is a guarantee of substantial and fin
est work Long may they hive to pursue
their worthy avocation

THE BRJMBY CHAIR FACTORY.

This splendid enterprise located in the
city Of Marietta alongside of the NJ. a. n
Ga and W. u A. Railroads, has been of in
calculable advantage and great blessing
to Marietta in furnishing many families
with work in bottoming chains. Thousands
of dollars have been paid to needy families
in this vicinity, who would indeed have suf-
fered for the necessaries of life but for the
work obtained at the Brumby Chair Facto-
ry.
The works were established in 1879 by
Mr. James r. Brumby and Major Henry
Myers and run successfully for two years,
when one cold night when the trees were
fringed with icicles, the brick building took
fire and was reduced to ashes. This prac-
tcally crippled Mr.. Myers financially and
in the rebuilding of the factory the Brumby
Brothers formed a partnership with James
r. Brumby, President and Thomas NJ.
Brumby, Secretary and Treasurer. 1t has
| been enlarged and filled with the best and
latest machinery and now turns out from
fifty to sixty dozen chairs per day giving
employment from fifty to hundred hands,
at the shops and homes Of the people, at an
expense for timber, material and employees
from $500 to 81 900 per week All sizes,
styles and kinds of chairs are made here,
from the finest to the commoncst, perfora
ted, rattan and splint, rocking chairs and
childs chairs, dining and parlor from
~Gich all can SELECT and he pleased. Owing
to the growing business Of the factory a
warehouse has been established at Chatta-
nooga, from which the trade of all the states
are supplied the freight rates being more
favorable than could be obtained at Allan
IA with the many railroads centering there
and water transportation.
The reputation of the Brumby chair is
| known, South, north, east and west, and no
home can be found but what the Kennesaw
rocker is there to contribute to the ease of
the inmates. 1t is an industry that Cobb
sggnty is proud Of and that is destined to
achieve greater financial success in the fu-
! ture than IN the past. Its clever, energetic
and enterprsing proprietors are active
young men with business qualifications and
Judgment that are sure induces of success
strength and progress. They are the kind
OF men who build up and make prosperous
all towns and cities. May they live long and
